æʃliŋ, loaf of autismo @aescling@cat.family

i’m tryïng to remember why we joined the fediverse in the first place my best guess is really just the same kind of motivation that led us to use (s/)qmail instead of postfix; we just like smaller weirder things. also we were lonely as FUCK

been a little over three years since when i first created a mastodon account

@Lady is there anything that would prevent upstream from accepting this?

there was a pretty bad CVE which thankfully had been fixed already in the version we’re currently running

no changes that affect my use case but i’ll get around to it, ideally tonight

ah FUCK s/qmail just released an update

@hourlyfoxbot oh!! foccs!!!!

i know something about federation doesn’t allow username changes that remote servers don’t see as a new account

do i remember correctly that masto federation looks up accounts by acct instead of by the numerical id

@netkitty tyvm, mew 💛🤎🖤

@hourlyfoxbot pretty

i am actually running a qmail fork in production in 2021

@Lady i meant like, later though

@Lady i see

@Lady you already got enough shit to do here as it is lol

@Lady just remember, we said we weren’t gonna burn ourselves out over this thing

@Lady ah! ty

yeah i could just use pinafore still but i want to actually use local only posts and such

pinafore lets you turn that off and i miss that

have i missed something, or can you not turn off the notification count on the bell in the little navigation menu in the masto front end
